REMOVAL
What Is Laser Hair Removal?
Laser hair removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses concentrated light energy to target the pigment within the hair follicle. The laser safely heats and disables the follicle, significantly reducing future hair growth without damaging the surrounding skin.
Because hair grows in cycles, multiple treatments are needed to target hairs during their active growth phase and achieve the best long-term results.

-
Face

Upper lip

How Many Treatments Will I Need?
